If you want to cut the cord, but can’t abide earbuds, Sony’s
popular on-ear
MDRXB650BTs are on sale for $78 right now, within $10 of
the all-time low we saw around Black Friday. These include NFC
pairing, a built-in microphone, and 30 hours of battery life,
and you even get your choice of three different colors.

Wi-Fi smart plugs have been around for awhile, but only now
are they getting small enough to only cover up a single outlet.
The new
TP-Link Smart Plug Mini is the same TP-Link Smart Plug you
know and love, but you know, miniaturized.

These allow you to enable and disable any power outlet remotely
from a smartphone app, on a schedule, or even with Alexa. Just
be warned, once you start buying these, you’ll want to automate
everything in your house. These were a few bucks cheaper on
Prime Day, but otherwise, $30 is a very good price.

You don’t need to sell a kidney to afford noise-cancelling
Bluetooth headphones; these 4 star-rated
Cowin E-7s are just $38 right now, or $32 off with promo
code 42YFK63R.

They might not have the brand recognition of Sony or Bose, but
these headphones pack in 30 hours of battery life, the ability
to use them in wired mode if the battery dies, and yes, active
noise cancellation that
reviewers say works really well.

If you’re in the market for a TV, computer, graphics card,
camera, smartphone, drone, speaker system, or pretty much
anything else that could be broadly considered “electronic,”Jet’s taking $25 off basically any $150
electronic order with promo code ITSELECTRIC25, or $40 off any
$250 order with code ITSELECTRIC40.

NordVPN has long been one of the
most popular and reliable VPN providers out there, and if you
sign up for a one-year membership, promo codeVIP70 will drop your annual price from $69 to
$48. If you’re sure you want to commit, use this link instead to get a
special two year plan for $79 with code2YSpecial2017. Lifehacker has recommended Nord
in some previous guides, but if you
have any firsthand experience with the service, sound off in

Trust me when I say that once you own one of these, you’ll
hardly ever use your “real” oven anymore. It preheats
significantly faster, it’s much easier to program, and it’s big
enough to cook all but the biggest meals. They don’t go on sale
often though, and the
Air model has never been this cheap before, so don’t miss
out.

There may be no better way to spend a Sunday than killing a
bottle of wine while leisurely making a big-ass paella to
share, but the experience isn’t complete without an
honest-to-goodness paella pan. Luckily, Nordic Ware makes a
heavy duty carbon steel model that’ll work on pretty much any
cooking surface, and with a few exceptions, $29 is about as
cheap as it gets.

The Pronto hooks up to any propane tank, and reaches
temperatures of up to 700 degrees, resulting in crispy crust
and melted cheese, all in just five minutes. The oven almost
always sells for $300, and
today’s $203 deal is one of the best Amazon’s ever offered.

While supplies last, Amazon’s selling the
AmazonBasics Thermal Laminator for $18, an all-time low.
This thing is sized to laminate standard 8.5 x 11″ pieces of
paper (just like the ones that come out of your printer at
home!), in addition to smaller things like letters and business
cards, and it warms up in just four minutes. You might not use
it today. You might not use it this year. But there will come a
day that you suddenly need to make a piece of paper waterproof
for some reason, and on that day, you’ll be glad you made this
impulse purchase.

With roughly half the cooking area of its bigger brother, this
isn’t well suited for a massive backyard barbecue, but portable
grills have their place. Temperature control is handled via two
different dampers, and you can use this for everything from
slow smoking to quickly searing steaks.

As far as vacuuming performance goes, this should be
essentially identical to the 650; the difference all comes down
to connectivity.
Built-in Wi-Fi allows you to schedule and start the Roomba
from anywhere via a smartphone app, or even control it with
your voice via Amazon Alexa or Google Home.

I know “smart” features on a lot of products are basically just
an excuse to charge more, but as a Roomba owner, I think these
make a ton of sense. I can tell you from experience that
programming a Roomba without an app is something I
wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy, and the ability to start ir
remotely means you can run the Roomba while you’re out of the
house, and come back to clean floors.

Cooking eggs isn’t exactly rocket science, but I’d say the
ability to make soft, medium, and hard boiled eggs, plus
omelettes and poached eggs at the touch of a button is worth
$15. The
Dash Go is Amazon’s top-selling egg cooker, and carries a
truly stellar 4.5 star review average from nearly 4,000
customers, so get it while it’s on sale for its best price in
months.

In case you missed it during the Prime Day chaos,
ExOfficio’s insanely popular sweat-wicking men’s underwear
is still on sale for $12-$15, in multiple sizes and colors.
It’s extremely rare for Amazon to have this many options in
stock, let alone at a discount, so don’t miss your chance to
stock up.

That price includes a mishmash of products, but basically, it
boils down to 28 cartridges, including a mix of three,
four, and six-blade models. Obviously, it depends on how often
you shave, but for many of you, that should last at least a
year. It would probably last me like three.

While not quite as small as some of our favorite minimalist
wallets, the new Swift Wallet is well-built and has
a ton of features, and you can get it for about $70 by
preordering.

First, let’s talk cards. The Swift Wallet features four
RFID-protected card slots (each of which can hold about three
cards comfortably, an exterior coin/card pocket that’s
purposely notRFID-protected for contactless
payment cards, and a few small interior pockets for business
cards.

The Swift’s claim to fame though is its unique cash
slot. Your bills sit behind the card holders on either side of
the wallet’s interior, meaning you can swipe a thumb up the
middle of the wallet to slide bills out with ease.

I know Kickstarter projects can occasionally go pear-shaped,
but the team behind Swift has successfully delivered on
three previous wallet Kickstarters, and they sent me a demo
unit to check out as well, so I don’t think you have much to
worry about here.

Clip the $10 coupon on the page to get the OneBlade plus
two extra replacement blades (three blades total) for $50.
Individual replacement blades usually sell for $15, and
two-packs go for $25, so you’re saving at least $10 here, and
you’ll have enough blades to last an entire year.

As I’ve said before, every male on our staff uses this thing,
and we’re all floored by how good it is. Shane wrote more about it
here, but the gist is that you can use it as a shaver or a
beard trimmer, with or without shaving cream, and in or out of
the shower.

First, let’s talk about what’s unchanged from the original
OneBlade. The
Pro still uses the same blades which last for four months
(or most likely longer, if you aren’t using it every day), it
still works in any direction, you can still use it with or
without shaving cream, and it’s still water resistant, so you
can use it in the shower without fear.

The biggest difference you’ll notice out of the box is the
Pro’s adjustable 14-length comb, compared to the three static
combs included with the standard OneBlade. That gives you more
flexibility to groom your beard just so, and makes it a lot
easier to achieve a smooth fade, if that’s what you’re going
for. It’s also fewer parts to keep track of.

The other big difference is the battery. It’s lithium-ion this
time around, so it lasts twice as long as the original OneBlade
(90 minutes vs. 45), recharges eight times as fast (one hour
vs. eight), and the built-in LED screen now shows you how much
juice you have left, so you’ll know whether you need to pack
your charger for trips.

Are these upgrades worth the standard $80 price tag, compared
to the original’s $35? Personaly, I don’t think so. But as a
happy OneBlade owner,
I’m awfully tempted to upgrade for $66, especially since
that would get me an extra blade which would normally cost
around $15.

If you’ve never checked out Nordstrom’s Anniversary Sale, what are you
even doing on Kinja Deals? The retailer puts thousands of fall
and winter styles, plus Nordstrom Beauty Exclusives,
on sale way before they go into the stores. Once the sale is
over, you’ll only be able to get them for full price, so you’d
better get on it. The sale lasts until August 6th.

I guess we don’t know for sure that the
new 2DS XL will be supply constrained and basically
impossible to find for the better part of its lifespan, but
Nintendo’s given us no reason to think otherwise over the last
few years. So if you think you want one, I’d buy it right now
before Amazon inevitably sells out.

Humble’s new Saints Row Bundle
features—you guessed it—a bunch of Saints Row games.
But you’ll also find other Deep Silver titles scattered among
the various tiers, including a few Homefront games,Mighty No. 9, Killer Is Dead, and more.

I imagine most of you have played at least one or two of
Telltale’s choice-driven narrative games, but the newest Humble Bundle is a
great excuse to try out more.

Just $1 gets you a lot of the studio’s earlier work, including
the first season of The Walking Dead, paying more than
the average unlocks the likes of Game of Thrones andTales from the Borderlands, while $15 gets youBatman and Minecraft: Story Mode. As always,a portion of the proceeds go to
charity, so make the choice to buy this bundle; you won’t
regret the consequences.
